We are committed to meeting you where you are, helping you to get your GED and prepping you for the historically black college or university of your choice. It’s not going to happen overnight, but what true success story really does? The only thing I ask in return is that you reach out and try to make a difference in someone’s life as well.
Time and time again, we watch our young people get written off, tossed aside or put at the end of the line because no one wants to give them a chance.
If you’re reading this letter and you’ve gotten a second chance at life, let me hear from you. I think it would be great for Rachel and other young people to hear about your journey.
So big hugs and lots of hope!
Tom
